Abstract

This community service activity was conducted in Taniwel District, West Seram Regency, over four days involving 45 young participants from several villages. It aimed to address the challenges of low cultural and digital literacy that threaten the continuity of local cultural heritage. Using a Participatory Action Learning approach, the program strengthened youth capacity to integrate cultural values with digital competencies through a participatory and collaborative learning process. The community, traditional leaders, and educational institutions were actively engaged throughout the stages to ensure the integration of cultural values and technology. The results indicated a significant improvement in participants’ ability to document, edit, and publish cultural content digitally, alongside increased awareness of preserving their cultural identity. This program produced a culture-based empowerment model adaptive to technological advancement, empowering youth as active agents in cultural preservation through digital media. The implications highlight the necessity of policy support and digital infrastructure development to sustain community-based cultural preservation initiatives.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the background of the Kapahaha War (16371646), explain the role of Kapitan Telukabessy in the conflict, and analyze its impact on the people of Morella Village, Leihitu District, Central Maluku Regency. Kapitan Telukabessy was a charismatic and courageous leader who led the resistance of the Morella community against Dutch colonial forces from the steep and strategic Kapahaha Hill. Using historical research methods, the study found that Telukabessy's nine-year struggle had a significant influence on shaping the collective identity and historical awareness of the Morella people. To this day, his contributions are honored and remembered, as seen in the naming of public spaces such as Telukabessy Street in Ambon City. His legacy stands as a symbol of resistance and remains deeply rooted in the collective memory of the Ambonese community.

Abstract

Abstract: This article examines the involvement of Malukan nationalists in the Indonesian National Revolution, particularly in confronting the attempted re-colonisation by the Netherlands Indies Civil Administration (NICA) during the 1945–1947 period. The research employs historical methods—including archival research, primary and secondary literature studies, and narrative and social historiographical approaches—to trace the dynamics of local resistance, reflecting ideological, political, and diplomatic strategies in defending independence. The findings show that Malukan nationalists—through organisations such as PIM, PRIMA, KRIM, and PARPIM—succeeded in forming networks of struggle that transcended regional, religious, and social class boundaries, rejected colonial co-optation, and voiced the sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia in both national and international forums. This resistance was not only military-based but also emphasized dimensions of identity, national solidarity, and the influence of local intellectual elites. Within the theoretical framework of postcolonial nationalism and political settlement, this study demonstrates that various active and strategic local actors and contexts shaped Indonesian nationalism. Thus, this article challenges the dominant Java-centric historiography and offers an academic contribution to the global discourse on decolonisation, national integration, and the agency of local communities in building the postcolonial state. Abstrak: Artikel ini menelaah keterlibatan kaum nasionalis Maluku dalam Revolusi Nasional Indonesia, khususnya dalam menghadapi upaya rekolonisasi oleh Netherlands Indies Civil Administration (NICA) pada periode 1945–1947. Dengan menggunakan metode sejarah—meliputi penelitian arsip, kajian literatur primer dan sekunder, serta pendekatan historiografi naratif dan sosial—penelitian ini menelusuri dinamika perlawanan lokal yang mencerminkan strategi ideologis, politik, dan diplomatik dalam mempertahankan kemerdekaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nasionalis Maluku, melalui organisasi seperti PIM, PRIMA, KRIM, dan PARPIM, berhasil membangun jaringan perjuangan lintas daerah, agama, dan kelas sosial, menolak kooptasi kolonial, serta menyuarakan kedaulatan Republik Indonesia di forum nasional maupun internasional. Perlawanan ini tidak hanya bersifat militer, tetapi juga menekankan dimensi identitas, solidaritas kebangsaan, dan pengaruh kaum intelektual lokal. Dalam kerangka teori nasionalisme pascakolonial dan penyelesaian politik, studi ini membuktikan bahwa berbagai aktor dan konteks lokal yang aktif serta strategis turut membentuk nasionalisme Indonesia. Dengan demikian, artikel ini menantang historiografi dominan yang berpusat pada Jawa serta memberikan kontribusi akademis terhadap diskursus global mengenai dekolonisasi, integrasi nasional, dan agensi komunitas lokal dalam membangun negara pascakolonial.

Abstract

Abstract: Various tensions of ethnic conflict had often appeared and disappeared along with the domination of state power throughout the rise and fall of the New Order . From the various regions in Indonesia, ethnic conflicts broke out in the multicultural city of Ambon due to uncontrolled competition for economic and social resources, coupled with other socio-political processes outside of the city. In contrast, ethnic conflicts did not occurred in the city of Medan despite it also had a relatively high competition for resources. The long history of these two regions had a similarity in creating a strong ethnic heterogeneity along with democratisation after the fall of the New Order regime. With the ethnic diversity of these two regions, ethnic conflicts tended to potentially erupt without carrying out any prevention and resolution steps appropriate to the background of the respective regions. This study aims to document the development and activities of the civic associations in Ambon and Medan, as well as to analyse their role in the prevention and resolution of ethnic conflicts in these two regions. This study uses a holistic approach by using various disciplines that are part of the social sciences and humanities clusters. The method used in this study uses a historical and anthropological approach in analysing the comparison of the two regions of study. Civic associations or civil society organisations in Ambon that promote peace and strengthen citizenship played an important role in preventing and resolving conflicts from community initiatives. Meanwhile, the civic associations and civil society organisations in Medan, with their cross-ethnic activities, had driven local democracy, strengthen human rights and promote peace or tolerance, which had positively shaped the plural society in Medan, North Sumatra. Abstrak: Berbagai ketegangan konflik etnis sering muncul dan menghilang seiring dengan dominasi kekuasaan negara sepanjang naik turunnya rezim Orde Baru. Dari berbagai wilayah di Indonesia, konflik etnis meledak di kota multikultural Ambon akibat persaingan ekonomi dan sosial yang tidak terkendali, ditambah dengan proses-proses sosial politik lain di luar kota tersebut. Sebaliknya, konflik etnis tidak terjadi di kota Medan meskipun kota ini juga memiliki tingkat persaingan sumber daya yang relatif tinggi. Dengan keragaman etnis di kedua wilayah tersebut, konflik etnis cenderung berpotensi muncul tanpa adanya langkah pencegahan dan resolusi yang sesuai dengan latar belakang masing-masing daerah. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendokumentasikan perkembangan dan aktivitas asosiasi kewargaan di Ambon dan Medan, serta menganalisis peran mereka dalam pencegahan dan penyelesaian konflik etnis di kedua wilayah tersebut. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan holistik dengan melibatkan berbagai disiplin dalam rumpun ilmu sosial dan humaniora. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan historis dan antropologis dalam menganalisis perbandingan kedua wilayah penelitian. Asosiasi kewargaan atau organisasi masyarakat sipil di Ambon yang mengedepankan perdamaian dan memperkuat kewargaan berperan penting dalam mencegah serta menyelesaikan konflik melalui inisiatif komunitas. Sementara itu, asosiasi kewargaan dan organisasi masyarakat sipil di Medan, dengan aktivitas lintas etnisnya, mendorong demokrasi lokal, memperkuat hak asasi manusia, serta mempromosikan perdamaian dan toleransi, yang secara positif membentuk masyarakat plural di Medan, Sumatra Utara.
